Cope2

Fernando Carlo, known as Cope2, is a pioneering graffiti and street artist from the Bronx, New York, who rose to prominence in the 1980s as one of the most prolific and influential figures in the New York subway graffiti movement. His bold, bubble-lettered wildstyle pieces and character work became iconic symbols of South Bronx street culture, and he has since transitioned into gallery and fine art contexts while maintaining the raw energy of his origins. Cope2 has exhibited internationally and his work has been collected by major institutions and private collectors, bridging the gap between urban graffiti culture and the contemporary art market.
